Note 2.   Liquidity

 

As of September 30, 2015, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3,026,606, and total current assets of $4,728,975.  This includes the proceeds from our August 2015 follow-on public offering in which we raised $4,304,029 after expenses.  We believe these cash resources will only be sufficient to sustain our operations for up to four months from September 30, 2015 without substantial cost cutting to a level that would include fewer sales resources and compliance levels of staffing and activities across the Company.   In addition, we have been advised by our financial advisors that our prospects of raising additional equity on acceptable terms are not likely favorable.  Further, to become profitable we would need to significantly increase the revenues we receive from sales of our MicroThermX products and substantially reduce expenses.  We do not expect that sales of MicroThermX products will increase sufficiently to cover our total costs of operations before the time we run out of cash and cash equivalents.  Substantially reducing costs may impair our ability to increase revenue.  Accordingly, we have entered into an agreement of merger and reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Galil Medical Ltd. (“Galil”) and Galil Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will tender for our outstanding shares of Common Stock followed by a merger under Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “Merger”), which we believe will provide the best value for our stockholders. See Note 14. Subsequent Events below.

                                                                                                                       

If we are unable to consummate the Merger or otherwise raise sufficient additional funds, we will need to significantly reduce our expenses, and evaluate other strategic alternatives, including collaborative arrangements, partnerships, or sales of assets, to allow us to continue operations.  However, significantly reducing our expenses would negatively affect our efforts to expand our marketing and sales presence, our research and development programs, and our ability to hire and retain qualified personnel.  Collaborative arrangements and partnerships may not be available to us and sales of assets may not generate sufficient cash to sustain our operations.  Consequently, we may not be able to continue our operations.
